Dark blonde with a little "ginger" in it

Hi everyone !
I'm so desperate with my hair.. The hairdresser has never managed to do what I want so I started to do it on my own a year ago.
I had naturally black hair, now it's an horrible light orangish / yellowish color
I've toned my hair with wella t14 and t27 but my hair are still yellow/orange (a little less than it was, for sure, but still)
I really really love redhead, it's a gorgeous hair color, but mine looks so unnatural.
That's ugly.
It looks a lot like in the ashley Tisdale's picture
What I want is the Reagan's hair color
Or a little lighter. A dark blonde with a little red/dark orange shade in it
What can I do ? Thank you so much for your answer

It sounds like you just need to tone the red a little. Just use a little blue direct dye (manic panic etc) mixed in with conditioner. The green will tone the orange down a bit. You'll want to strand test first to see how much blue to use, but you won't need a lot.

Thank you for your answer! So you don't think that I need to dark them a little using a kind of light brown color?

The toning will have an effect of making it slightly darker, so I don't think so. I would try a strand test. If you feel you want it darker then it might be worth doing that. I don't think you'll need to myself.
